How? is a song written by Bora Karaca and performed by Cojum Dip.
It is one of the few songs released exclusively on The Greatest Demo CD in the Universe, although a later demo from 2008 also exists.

Until 2022, there was no known recording of the song, until a page on the website Vicious Enterprises was uncovered which contained three demos by Cojum Dip, including a demo of "How?".[1] This version was uploaded to YouTube for posterity.[2]

Song Meanings

On the website "Vicious Enterprises", the song was uploaded with the description: "If a hardcore metal musician was forced to do a pop rock song, this is what it would sound like. If a crazy person wrote a song, this is what it would sound like."[1]

Lyrics

The story ends somewhat like this
But where it starts is what you missed
Telling my own lies anyway
and tired of courtesy you stay

Shrink wrapping my intestines!
Making your breath stink
Look so bad right now
from your foul putrid face

I'm looking back to yesteryear
When all those garbage cans had lids
The idea was simple, kick the fetter out
But in the process we all felt the same

The story ends somewhat like this
But where it starts is what you missed
Telling my own lies anyway
and tired of courtesy you stay

Shrink wrapping my intestines!
Making your breath stink
Look so bad right now
from your foul putrid face

I'm looking back to yesteryear
When all those garbage cans had lids
The idea was simple, kick the fetter out
But in the process we all felt the same
We had to open them ourselves!

The story ends somewhat like this
But where it starts is what you missed [choking]
Telling my own lies anyway (oohuhuhuhuhuhuhu!)
and tired of courtesy you stay [choking]

Shrink wrapping my intestines!
Making your breath stink
Look so bad right now
from your foul putrid face
Ahaha
Aha
Ah

Looking back to yesteryear
When all those garbage cans had lids
The idea was simple, kick the fetter out
But in the process we all felt the same
"We had to open them ourselves"
Aah!

I might mistrust you're already intrigued
No doubt in search of what you need (Blrark!)
There's an answer somewhere here,
Maybe the end of the song will tell (Blah!)

Aagh, ahahaha
Shrink wrapping my intestines!
Making your breath stink
Look so bad right now
from your foul putrid face

Looking back to yesteryear (rra)
When every new shoe I bought smelt the same (rra)
It made me wonder how they differed (ugh)
They served the same purpose, different fate [snorts]
Why doesn't anyone tie them right? (a-ah!)

Ooh aah
Oooh pfpfpfpf!
Blblblblblbl rauh
Raaah!

But once you find out where the road guides 
Of what you assumed of all your friends
I've got both the yin and yang, so which to use?
Do I use the light, or the dark?

Death!
